    Anyone have an LG Smart-TV? Possibly privacy concern. LG Smart TVs logging USB filenames and viewing

    Good read. Kind of creepy that even with the feature disabled, your viewing data is still sent in plain text. http://doctorbeet.blogspot.co.uk/2013/11/lg-smart-tvs-logging-usb-filenames-and.html

    Quiting smoking.

    Been two weeks for me. Went to the shooting range today with my step-father who smokes like a chimney and never wanted one. In fact, hated the smell and didn't like being in the truck with him when he was smoking (even with the window cracked).

    VBulletin.com got jacked!

    I've got a love/hate relationship with IPB. I didn't really shop around, and was offered a license for cheap from a LET member and just sort of went with it. If I was re-starting vpsBoard today and knew it'd take off, I'd have highly considered other options as well.

    How to waste ad money.

    THIS is a waste of ad-money: Looking up Neil Young lyrics, was on some random lyric site.

    Post your workspace/workarea/job sites :D

    Updated. That chair was brandnew <3 months ago. Fucking kitten likes to climb it like she's a rock climber and has scratched the hell out of it.

    Running a FreeBSD server with jails

    Possible to post this as it's own, new tutorial? Wealth of information!

    Quiting smoking.

    I was 20, I believe. I'd roll my own on the occasion, and was living out west in the desert at the time. The first time I had to drive from Nevada to New Mexico, I, for whatever reason, bought a pack of Camels. I didn't roll any smokes for the trip and driving stresses me out. Once I got to New...

    POLL: New forum ideas.

    Seems like hardware stuff could be placed in a, "Running a VPS Business" type forum. Wouldn't you agree? I'll check with the others and see about implementing that soon. :)

    VPSAce hacked, database stolen, encryption key for cards likely taken

    Jesus, is that a joke? Someone exploited them and demanded a VPS to be upgraded as ransom? Sounds like someone was suspended since they ask for it to be reinstated.

    Lowendspirit.com goes shared hosting

    Thread has been cleaned up and the bickering has been hidden.

    VPSAce hacked, database stolen, encryption key for cards likely taken

    Ah, you must lurk IRC. I didn't think to post it here. 1:00 AM <•MannDude> I log in once a week or so and check to see where traffic is coming from and what not. 1:00 AM <Hexxis> i do it about once a month 1:00 AM <•MannDude> Speaking of which... 1:00 AM — •MannDude checks Piwik 1:01 AM...

    GreenValueHost tells their non high paying clients to GTFO

    Merged the two topics!

    GreenValueHost tells their non high paying clients to GTFO

    GVH only had two servers? Didn't they rent these from HVH? Did we ever learn what the 'financial relationship' was between HVH and CC, since if you pay your HVH bill with a credit card, CC shows up on your statement? Anyhow, hopefully it works out better for the end-users. Judging by previous...

    Best performance tips when resource constraints are not an issue?

    I know a lot of us here run websites on servers or VPSes that are limited in their resources, and we must make adjustments and tweaks to ensure things run well within those limits. The forum for vpsBoard actually runs quite comfortably within 512MB of RAM, utilizing roughly 150-200MB~ which...

    [123Systems Announcement] Server Upgrade

    Thats why I asked the question if the coloed gear was actually owned outright by them (purchased, assembled, and shipped to the DC) or if it was RTO gear... or bought from CC. Best of luck Andrew. You seem like a good guy, I think most of us here just squirm when we see others playing with fire. :)

    [123Systems Announcement] Server Upgrade

    Out of curiosity, is this new equipment things you ordered and are shipping to the DC? Is it rent-to-own gear? Or is it gear you bought upfront off of CC (who it's being leased to)?

    LiteSpeed vs. OpenLiteSpeed vs. nginx vs. Apache 2.2 vs. Apache 2.4!

    Nice read, but would be good to see a test done from a unbiased source. Whenever I scrolled over the links and saw they were on the Litespeed site, I already knew the results. I'm not saying I don't believe them, just saying I'd feel more comfortable accepting them as fact if all done by...
